Power Trading Radio

Sam and Merlin look at the current price situation for the S&P 500 and how that should be steering trades going forward. They also answer several listener questions about the future of gold!

The next two weeks will present some catalysts for the currency world with some major rate announcements. Merlin takes a look at the global purchasing power of the dollar, and how he uses it to chose his vacations, then offers some analysis of the US Dollar, Japanese Yen, and Euro.

On a day which would escalate most investors market angst, Roger Best joins Merlin to talk about the great trading opportunities he and his students identified. Roger points out how market volatility can be a good thing and why traders should embrace it!
